Wright has 18 career catches, 13 of which came last season. He played for coach Hue Jackson in Cincinnati. He'll compete for one of the rebuilding Browns' final roster spots. Mar 14 - 4:21 PM

Bengals waived WR James Wright.

A seventh-round pick in 2014, Wright looked to be carving out a role before a knee injury derailed his career. He did manage 13 catches in 13 games last season, but getting waived at this point in the offseason is not a great sign for his future. Mar 13 - 12:43 PM

Bengals WR James Wright (microfracture surgery) will be a full participant in camp.

Even with the Bengals replacing Marvin Jones and Mohamed Sanu's lost targets, Wright's best odds of making the 53-man roster are as a special teamer. Wright was the No. 239 overall pick of the 2014 draft. Mon, Aug 1, 2016 02:20:00 PM

Bengals WR James Wright (knee) has been cleared for individual drills.

Wright has missed the last two seasons to microfracture surgery. His return to practice is a good sign, but Wright's training camp status remains up in the air. Mostly a special teamer before going down, Wright will compete for one of the final receiver spots. Wed, Jun 15, 2016 09:12:00 PM

Browns LG Joel Bitonio (knee) has been ruled out of the Browns' second preseason game.

Bitonio isn't dealing with any structural damage and won't need surgery. It's not related to his 2016 Lisfranc injury, but this is a setback that could cost him multiple weeks. Bitonio should be ready for the season opener.

Browns placed C Austin Reiter on injured reserve with a torn left ACL, ending his season.

A 2015 seventh-round pick of the Redskins, Reiter made his first career appearance Sunday, starting against the Redskins. With first-rounder Cameron Erving still week to week with a bruised lung, the Browns could be down to option three at the pivot in Week 5.

Coach Hue Jackson already ruled Erving out for the Browns' second preseason game. It's possible Erving will be ready for Week 1, but this is a huge blow to his starting chances. Shon Coleman is likely to open the year at right tackle.
